Take control & keep your website up to date

Up until relatively recently clients relied on their appointed web developers to not only design and build their websites but also edit and update them.

These days many clients prefer to take control themselves and this is achievable with the use of content management systems, often referred to as CMS's.

But taking control of a website can be a little daunting, after all whatever is done will be seen by the public including, perhaps more crucially, customer bases. But with simple training clients can quickly gain the confidence and ability to keep their websites up to date - and looking good. Words can be edited, pictures can be changed and pages can even be added or deleted within the root structure.

There are a number of 'off-the-shelf' CMS solutions available, as well as public domain 'shareware' options, but the most reliable CMS solutions often prove to be the bespoke ones. Having a content management system custom-built to a client's preferences and requirements will ultimately prove less restrictive and more future-proof. The system would focus solely on that client's business, so there would be no surplus functionality that can often prove irritating. The result is a much more powerful, deliverable solution that performs exactly to requirements.





















We've found here at GGS that our clients tend to prefer the bespoke CMS option and we work together from the outset to ensure that the resulting solutions deliver correctly and consistently, thus allowing our clients to take control of their websites with confidence and ability!
